not really the place for this, but I don't feel like making a new board for this one question SO! I'm working on getting this forum active this weekend! And I was doing research into real herding trials and reading about the different herding styles, so that's what I need you guys for! The main catagories are gathering dogs (BCs), driving dogs (Aussie), and tending dogs (GSD). Also there are "stalking breeds" like the BC and more upright breeds, like aussies or cattle dogs, and vocal herders like Icelandic sheepdogs and shelties. So, I need petz interpretations of these herding styles to use for examples for show types, since I don't have every herding breed and don't want to adopt a bunch more dogs just for example photos

Are you looking for them doing herding type things? Such as 'stalking' or barking and such?

Here's one for Border collies, I'll try to get more as well. Myst doing an example of 'the stare' Edit- Tea 'Stalking' EDIT2- Herding Commands, found here: www.herding-dog-training-border-collie-sheepdog-dvd.com/herding_sheepdog_command_terminology.htmTT- Walk up or Take time ^Better if looking forward. Tea- Come Bye Tea- Away to me Odo- Get Back Odo- Gather or Come Bye Odo- In Here Odo- Look Back Odo- Stand Odo- That'll do EDIT3- I looked at GSD herding pics and almost all of them were doing this: I'll try to watch some videos through out the day and see what else I can come up with.

Your Welcome! I had a lot of fun getting the pics following those commands, so I hope you do put them to good use!
I also had an idea, for the more advanced trials you could make it a requirement that the pics be done naturally instead of merged (though you might lose people if you do this :/). Just figured it'd make things more challenging to get those last titles.
